Rockbox did not kill my ipod

<< < (2/2)

djnforce9:
I asked about this problem (or rather I found out that it was related to this) in a thread I made. I was told that it was a bug in the apple bootloader itself where it reports a dead battery followed by a blank screen when there really isn't a problem. Doing the reset as you did of course fixes it. You wouldn't notice it as much with the original firmware because it goes into standby instead of completely shutting down so it's less likely you will be powering up and loading the firmware again.

So yeah, I guess if you see the dead battery icon, reset the ipod and try again (make sure it's not plugged in via USB when resetting or you'll always get the dead battery icon I find).
